Hi fellow fishes.  Not going to the game because I’m 41 years exiled so had no chance of a ticket. Pretty sure I’m not alone but the emotional wreckage started pretty much straight after work last night. Had a beer or 5 to try and calm the nerves but didn’t work, was wide awake at 3am trying to solve the problems of the world and thinking about the game.  Decided to increase the recreational (alcohol) medicine tonight but suspect a repeat is on the cards.  The dogs love it, a turd at 3am, what an adventure.

Trying to be realistic and accept we have no realistic chance, but I can’t, I just can’t.  No way can I watch the game expecting to lose, I’m a lower league football fan, take away my dreams and there’s nothing left.  

We won’t embarrass ourselves whatever, that’s my consolation if the unthinkable happens.

Come on Town, you can do this, you really can.

I'm not nervous at all. We realistically have no chance, so why worry?

If we are a goal up in the last 10 minutes however.....

I ran the figures through ai Chatgpt. It says the only way we will win is if we have more goals tjan them at the final whistle.

We have absolutely no chance of winning. Just like the Southampton game .

I don't seem to remember Grimsby being bothered about being the underdogs at the end of last season so just enjoy the day and see what happens

We won`t take as bad a pasting as Burnley. I guarantee it.

We have frequently won when we were the underdogs.  There has to be reasons for this impressive success.

5% chance of winning I reckon. The lads will put in their absolute all like any Hurst team would. It’s 11 v 11 and there’s 4600 Town there. There’s a very slim chance, but that’s still a chance. Up the bloody Mariners!

My gut has said, almost precisely since the draw was made, that it won’t be a 11 v 11 for very long. We shall soon see.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.
